TBH, when I was on OLD a year or so ago, it's a mix of timing and photos. Different photos work with different ladies. I found the action shots were the best. I used a mountain climbing one, a MMA one, a axe throwing one, a skydiving one and me decked to the nine's at a formal event. Anyone can do it... I'm the s hit, but nothing special. You can do it too. Even @biggoal can.. If he actually listened to us.
That's interesting. Unfortunately I have too many financial problems to afford the luxury of time, let alone money, to even consider any of the activities you mentioned and making photo shoots. Sounds like the stuff for middle/upper class white people. In a sense you are already subcommunicating you are wealthy and brave and I guess a fit and all together white man or something like that. Yeah, I can see women gravitating towards a profile because you are hitting their attraction triggers by playing up LMS on the photos.
Most of my issues against OLD comes from experience with OLD within the past 10 - 15 years. I was never really a happy camper with OLD and just had a little isolated jackpot here and there, but nothing that lasted. If you say it is worst now then that's really game over if I was pulling teeth back then.
AT least you have some good experience with OLD. Most of my negativity with OLD is actually based on experiences with this back in 2006, where I was on POF, lavelife, adultfriendfinder and that felt like pulling teeth. Even Christian-cafe was too isolated and sporadic. Not from any experience today or recently since I've actually stopped since 2016 (3 years ago) taking it seriously as an option to meet women, or at best a healthy option.biggoal said:
What you are saying right now is the same thoughts I've had in 2006. This is 13 years ago. Look at my old posts and how people replied to me under the alias: Luke Skywalker. I was banned because people got frustrated for me because I kept failing with OLD. I eventually found someone in 2012 as one of those threads predicted, but hey that was 9 years ago now and it was a FLUKE. Lightening like that doesn't strike twice and must be a once and a lifetime experience. Nothing good with OLD has happened since then. You are saying it's worst today then I'm like wow.biggoal said:
One poster suggested paying some escorts to hangout with you and take pics to look wealthy and popular with the ladies and another suggested photoshopping yourself into pics around hot ladies partying and that so it makes your status look in demand. Paying someone to photo shop shouldn't cost an arm and a leg.
Pof is a garbage app anyway, maybe step below tinder. 95 percent of the women on there I wouldn't touch and would be worried about STDs
The cousin was in a visit to Italy in August 2006. It was in my mind, during the trip, to take as many photos as I can while on this vacation with me with my cousin or just having fun in various locations within the trip. The idea was to post up some pics when I got back. However, the feedback I got was the photos still looked geeky and didn't have the type of traction that I would have expected.
That is bad. You cant imagine a hot white girl if that is the case. She chose you out of the 60 guys or did she fvck all of them and you one of them she also fvcked.
I believe it. It's so easy with phones now. Before 2010 or so most people had flip phones so you had to actually sit down at your PC, log on and browse OLD that way and actually devote more time to it, hence likely more serious people used it hence less work needed to get replies and secure a date.
That's a cop out dude. I came from the streets of Jamaica, Queens, hardly the rosy picture you are thinking of. No photo shoots, another person taking a pic with my phone. Everything I listed above I did through Groupon. Each activity was between 20 - 40 aside from the skydiving and zip-lining. Those were around 120, and I went to upstate NY to do it. MMA, that's a membership to a MMA gym, 20 bucks a month. Cheaper if you pay annually. I have side hustles, no reason why you can't too. So many opportunities, you just have to be hungry enough to want it. Listen, my parents were horrible financial role models. We lost our place due to them not having their finances straight. I am sure you can do some side gigs to make some extra change. You just need to want it bad enough. This owe, I'm f ucked in life ain't working. You are obviously a smart dude. Use your mind to make extra $$$.
What about in my case? I have income coming in, 30 grand in the bank. What are some good activities that are not wallet busting and just cost a couple hundred bucks that will put you into contact with ladies and appeals to them?
These days everyone uses filters and lies about height a bit which I don't have an issue with really.
You don't listen to advice here. Everyone, I think even the forum admin, advised you on what to do, but you still go after GILFs, single moms and refuse to move. Happy to help, we all are, but you never follow any of the advice given.
But on OLD that's all I really see within a 50 mile radius is single moms. The women under 35 are usually land whales and overall not very many of them on OLD around here. Most of the decent ones are over 40. So on OLD what am I supposed to do if not many 35 and under women?
She was in town for the weekend, as was I. So, I think it was just me.
When it comes to online dating the only really successful ones I see getting relationships are the fat, disgusting ugly lardball types. I mean two of the same type hooking up with each other because they settle for that.
You also need time. The point of money is not the admission-fee for the activities, but the point that you have time freed up because you don't have to work, chase the dollar, or do activities that will generate income. If the income is too small, which more often than not it is, and you don't have that much time or money at the end of the day once all the bills are paid then its simply a no go idea.
How much face time did you have with her?
You won’t have a chance to charm her in person either without meeting her minimum looks standard.
